Diagnose me: bewbie pain (major tmi alert!!!)

[Deleted]

I don't think it's serious enough to go to the doc, but I'm not feeling too hot.

For the past 2 weeks my nips have been sore, but I haven't had any boob pain. Within the past 2 days I keep getting these shooting/stabbing pains in my boobs. I can breathe just fine and my chest doesn't hurt, it's just my boobs. I don't feel any lumps or bumps either. It's just the tenderness and shooting pains.

I haven't had my period since 2001 (depo and my procedure), so it's not TOM related.

What say ye, dr. Nexties? I'm afraid to web md because I have a feeling they'll say it's cancer.

well, I think I'd suggest going to the Dr. - there's a good chance it's not serious/life threatening, but I think you would need a physical exam and they'll ask a lot of questions to try to help figure out what it is in order to do something about it. I don't think it's going to be something like cancer (typically not associated with pain and you said no lumps), so you could probably just think on it for a while.

i used to get this all the time and my mom used to tell me it was cause they were growing and i'd get happy. ;D

i say wait it out..if it super super bothers you, then see a doc..but maybe they are changing bc of the procedure/change in hormones.

PREGNANT!!!!!!

just kidding... i don't remember what procedure you (tubes tied and lining removed?) had but I assume you still have your ovaries. Your ovaries will still release an egg and have a 'period' right?

Lol.

Dur. This makes a lot of sense. I still have all of my internal bits. my ovaries do release an egg still, the egg just doesn't have any where to go. I'm going to keep an eye on it and if it gets worse or doesn't go away in the next week I'll call the doc.

Thanks, dr. Nexties.

well, honestly - I asked H and he says "I can't say what it is without asking 10 questions and doing an exam". So yeah, it doesn't sound serious and I probably wouldn't worry about it but if it bothers you the only way to find out what it is would probably be to go in.

I agree with all of the above. Your ovaries are still releasing hormones, which do wreak havoc on your bbs sometimes.

yeah - although I just realized, have you ever had this before? If not, then maybe it is something worth seeing a Dr. about to make sure everything down there is ok!
